About

I’ve always been a creator, an artist, a curious student of life and nature. I grew up in the foothills of Southern Oregon, in the charming little town of Ashland. Growing up, you’d usually find me outside, making something or playing in the dirt. Design came in to my life when I went off to college at Oregon State University. Early in my education at OSU, I collaborated with other departments, especially those involved in new media, technology, sciences and engineering. What I took away from my experience was that learning is a lifelong endeavor, and to follow your passion. I am a lifelong learner; I absolutely love to learn new things, and I believe it is essential to creative thinking and inspiration. I have a gradual career progression in the design field. I value each and every experience I’ve had along the way. Each position has taught me a great deal more about the creative business and production teams; practical knowledge that only comes with experience. My goals are simple; to live a happy life and to help those along the way with my skills to find their happiness and reach their goals as well.
